21、sers from being struck by falling pieces of climbing holds that break whilst in use on an ACS. Some propriety systems within climbing holds have been developed by manufacturers in response to this problem but the systems have not been perfected and further development work is required. The aim is to

22、 develop a system that would prevent large pieces of a broken hold, that could cause serious injury to ACS users, from being able to break-off and fall from the ACS. Designers and manufacturers are requested to work on new systems that would address this problem. Copyright European Committee for Sta

This European Standard i

24、s applicable to climbing holds, which are used for the natural progression of the climber, i.e. without the use of artificial means (e.g. ice axes, crampons, hooks, nuts) on artificial climbing structures (ACS) and bouldering walls. Climbing holds are designed to be mounted on the ACS with bolts, sc

25、rews etc. Climbing holds include large volumes or features that are designed for use without additional climbing holds being attached to them. (Volumes or features that are designed for use with additional climbing holds attached to them should meet the requirements of EN 12572-1) The main fixation

26、points for climbing holds forms part of the existing layout of the ACS and are considered in EN 12572-1 and EN 12572-2. A hold is not a belay anchor system; it is not designed to accommodate the latter and is therefore is not intended for belaying the climber. If a hold is designed as belay point it

27、 should meet EN 12572-1 and EN 12572-3 of the standard. This European Standard is not applicable to ice climbing, dry tooling and playground equipment. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

33、an 15 mm, which protrude more than 40 mm from the wall; c) There shall be no gaps between 8 mm and 25 mm and with a depth greater than 15 mm which can lead to entrapment, unless specifically designed for climbing. 4.3 Resistance to fixation force Climbing holds shall be tested in accordance with 5.2

34、 and they shall not fracture. 4.4 Resistance to rotation When climbing holds exhibit features that are off centre to the fixation point(s) they shall not rotate when tested in accordance with 5.3. 4.5 Resistance to breakage in use Climbing holds shall be tested in accordance with 5.4 and they shall

35、not fracture. 4.6 Dimension Ratio This requirement is to protect the surface of the ACS and the hold insert. The hold shall be designed in such a way that the ratio between: the load implementation edge of the hold, to the fixation hole, to opposite edge at the base of the hold, will result in a for

36、ce less than 5 kN in the insert hole when loaded with 1,5 kN at the load implementation edge. Any hold with a ratio 3:1 (d2 : d1and/or d3 : d1) is not acceptable (see Figure 1).

Befor

38、e performing the test cycles the climbing holds shall be wetted by submerging in tap water for 10 min. There shall be no visible signs of damage to the climbing holds after conditioning. Undamaged climbing holds shall be dried after their last cycle and the following tests 5.2 to 5.4 shall be perfor

39、med. 5.2 Resistance to fixation force Testing shall be carried out using a wood panel of a minimum 18 mm thickness of untreated birch plywood with a suitable large washer and an ungreased nut, where appropriate. Fix the hold to the wood panel with a torque on the fixation screw using the manufacture

40、rs recommended maximum tightening torque, plus 10 %. 5.3 Resistance to rotation If the manufacturer specifies in the instructions that the hold shall always be attached with more than one fixation point then there is no need to test this requirement. Fix the hold to the manufacturers recommended tig

41、htening torque to a wood panel of a minimum 18 mm thickness of untreated birch plywood. Load the hold with a device (e.g. a hook, sling, sky hook) which pushes or pulls in the most unfavourable usable position and direction (normally anticlockwise) against rotation with a force of 1,5 kN for 1 min p
